Description

Psychological interest in emotion is now greater than it has been for several decades. As the editor says: 'Emotion is back, and with a vengeance!' In this fascinating volume, Shaver has brought together sixteen researchers who are working in the important areas of emotion, personal relationships and health. Together, their contributions spell out just how much we know about these subjects and their intricate inter-relationship. They attempt to investigate the huge range of emotions engendered by interdependent living, and to show how the quality of an individual's social ties can affect -- and be affected by -- his state of health.
